The only reason the US went to the moon at the time was to show off. Once that mission was done, it lost almost all motivation to go to space. Leaving NASA with not only a substantially reduced budget, but also with a management system that only works with high budgets.

It all started with Nixon (technically with Kennedy, but he had no control over that).

>Too bad the USAF killed NASA via the shuttle.
How so? Sure, the USAF demanded some tough stuff for the Shuttle when NASA sold it to them, but NASA was the one who approached the USAF. NASA wouldn't have to go to the USAF for more money if they had the budget to develop it properly. The USAF was never really interested in the Shuttle. The real villains here were Congress and Nixon.

>Regardless, the space shuttle was fucking sexy as hell.
Can't argue against that. It does look nice.
